[Warning, extreme sexual content up ahead. If orgies aren't your thing, you might want to skip to the near end, though I promise it's really juicy and sexy. *grins*]
Bella walked into the bazaar. She was done for the day, Eric had told her as much. She spent most of chow telling everyone that she was fine. She went by infirmary to check on Lukas, but he was unconscious. Carlisle said that Bella had saved his life and thanked her properly. After the others went back to a night training that Four had established to help the transfers, she decided to go to the bazaar. See Tori, get some more ink done.
She made it to the tattoo shop and she met Tori inside.
Tori looked up at Bella and frowned. "Ouch. How's the other guy look?"
"I almost killed him." Bella said and sighed, sitting in the chair.
"You nearly killed someone today?" Tori asked, shocked.
"Yeah. Lukas."
Tori was shocked. "Eric's little brother? Seriously?"
Bella nodded. "Yeah. I preformed CPR on him until I got him breathing again. He's in infirmary now. Carlisle said I saved his life."
"Well, that's good, but why did you do it? You know recruits have died before to their injuries." Tori said and handed Bella the tattoo book.
Bella flipped through the art as she thought about it. "I don't know. I guess part of me remembered being in Abnegation. We were always told to help someone. I get that we're supposed to tear each other apart out there, but honestly, I didn't want to kill him. I didn't have a reason to."
"But if you had a reason?"
"Oh, then yeah. He would be dead right now. But that's not the point." Bella said and then tapped on a photo. It was more oriental symbols. "Down the spine." She said and took her shirt off, revealing her patched side, which was extremely bruised now. She turned in the chair, laying on her stomach as Tori hit the pedal and reclined it slightly.
Tori smiled at her friend as she got the stencils ready. "You've got heart. You have a fire in you and you're proving you want to win. Just be careful."
"I know. I've been trying. Like yesterday, I get shot, Al's dumb shot ricochets off something and hits me. I'm fine, but of course Eric used that. That is why I was on those mats today. Partly because I pissed him off earlier that morning, but still."
"Maybe you shouldn't piss instructors off. Remember Eric is dangerous. He can have you killed and you nearly killed his brother. I wouldn't put it past him."
Bella thought about it. "No. He has compartments. Eric is smart, even though Lukas is his family and even if Lukas had died today, he wouldn't hold that against me. Because we're doing what Dauntless do. We're training to be the best. Lukas thought he was the best, but I proved that he wasn't today. I had a handicap. Eric meant to knock me down a peg because I piss him off, but I just did the opposite. Now, I've caught his attention and he's going to go harder on me because of it, but that has nothing to do with Lukas being his brother and every bit of how Eric trains recruits."
Tori finished the stenciling and fired up the laser for the tattoo machine. "Sounds like you have Eric figured out."
"I do. I think. At least I have most of him figured out. Four is another story. He's just flat all the time. I can't tell what his deal is. He's not an asshole, he's just… there."
"Four is a lot of things. He's mysterious to begin with, nobody really knows where he came from. I can't remember if he was a transfer or if he was Dauntless born, because of how quiet he is."
Bella sighed. "It doesn't matter where you come from T, it only matters what you are now."
Tori could agree with that. Silence filled the space while the machine hummed and did it's job in placing the bold ink against Bella's skin.
After a while, Tori pulled the machine back. The swirling oriental pattern down Bella's spine was complete, Courage was tattooed in kanji at the top. "There you go."
Bella rolled her shoulders a little. It stung a little but it wasn't too bad. She pulled her shirt back on after her bra and she turned in the chair and looked at Tori. "One more on my forearm?"
Tori laughed. "Addicted to the sting huh?"
"I just want tally marks. I want to keep track of who I am."
Tori smiled and nodded, then put three marks on the inside of her forearm. "3 and 0." She said and then she patted Bella's hand.
Before Tori could take her hand away, Bella took it, holding it in hers, forcing Tori to look back at Bella with a confused expression. "What?"
"Thank you." Bella said, her dark eyes sincere.
Tori smiled at her friend. "No need to thank me."
"You've helped me a lot and I… I appreciate that. More than you know. I can't talk to anyone else like I can to you."
"You're special Bella. I want you to survive this."
"Me too." Bella murmured. They sat there a moment, staring at each other, before Tori leaned in, kissing Bella. It was a surprise, though Bella didn't pull away. Her lips parted, letting Tori taste her. It wasn't a hard kiss, nor was it passionate, but it was a kiss that told Bella how Tori felt and it stirred something in Bella somewhat. A curiosity. She had never kissed a woman before, and this experience was new to her. Bella was doing so many new things lately and she chased the feeling it gave her. It was like a high. So, she continued forward, her hands going to Tori's waist then and pulling her down into her lap. Tori straddled Bella, the kissing sending thrills through her as their mouths consumed one another. Though Tori was the one to break the kiss. She looked down into Bella's eyes.
"Let's get a drink." Tori said and Bella smiled, nodding.
The two women went to the bar to get drinks. The music was a vibe. And with alcohol involved, Bella took to the dance floor with Tori and they danced together. It was sexy and it was provocative. Bella was never a dancer, but now she was, as her and Tori rolled their bodies together. The affects of the alcohol felt nice, and her mouth moved to Tori's and Tori readily accepted the kiss. They were in their own little world on the dance floor.
Eric went to the bar, sighing and ordering a beer to end his day. It was a long one. He checked on Lukas. Carlisle said that the seizure was a result of the concussion. That without Bella, he would have died, so to thank Bella for Lukas breathing. Though Eric wouldn't thank Bella. He had no need to. It was a fight, on those mats. If Lukas had died, he would have died and that was the end of it. He caught the image of Bella dancing with Tori and making out with her on the dance floor and he had to do a double take. He sipped his beer as he watched the two girls get handsy with one another. He had watched many times before, people fuck each other on the dance floor in the bazaar. This was Dauntless. Orgies weren't uncommon. Dauntless knew how to have fun. But watching Bella and Tori, it was hot to say the least. He took another drink of his beer, keeping to himself to see how this would unfold.
Bella felt Tori's hands reach low, rubbing down the front of her pants in the right places. It sent a thrill through Bella and she pressed closer to Tori then, their kiss breaking and Tori's mouth going to Bella's throat, sucking there. Bella's eyes closed, a pleasure filling her that she didn't know was possible, though the alcohol was the catalyst here for her to explore this far. Tori's hand slid up, moving over her waistband to dip into the moist cave, Bella gasping as Tori's fingers circled over her clit immediately.
Bella's eyes went back to Tori's and they smiled at each other, while Tori continued to push Bella towards pleasure. Bella reached for Tori, pulling her in, her hands moving up under Tori's shirt, running over Tori's small mounds and her nipples. Excitement filled them both and Tori removed her hand to plant them firmly on Bella's ass and pulled her close and she grinded, Bella following suit as they grind together on the floor in an erotic display of alcoholic bliss.
Though Bella wanted another drink, so she kissed Tori and whispered in her ear. "I'm getting another drink." She said and Tori smiled nodding, staying on the dance floor to dance to the music. Bella made it back towards the bar, but looked behind her to see Tori with another guy this time and they were locked together. She smiled and shook her head, before going to the bar and ordering another drink. She glanced over, seeing Eric and her smile faltered.
Eric walked over towards her. "Having fun?"
"Trying to." Bella said and then the bartender brought her the drink over and she took it. She knocked it back, setting the glass on the bar and nodded for a second round.
"I admit, you're full of surprises today."
"I don't like to be predictable." Bella said and then took the other drink and knocked it back.
Eric nodded and glanced over on the dance floor and there was an orgy starting. "So, do you want to join in on the orgy or do you want me to take you back to my room and finish what Tori couldn't?"
Bella raised a brow. "I think I might pass and join the orgy. I've never been in one before."
"They're pretty great. " Eric said and finished his beer. "I might join myself."
"Oh?"
"I know how to have fun." Eric said.
Bella smiled. "Prove it." She dared and returned to the dance floor, pulling her top off.
Eric smiled, following her onto the dance floor. He pulled his own shirt off, his muscles rippling as he did. Bella turned her back to him and he watched her go up to someone completely random and she locked her lips to theirs. The dude was drunk too, mostly naked and he went for it. He moved his hands all over Bella slipping her bra free now, exposing her.
Eric watched, not sure what the feeling he had was, as he watched another man handle her, but he moved forward, his body hard behind hers as he asserted his dominance to the other man, who backed off, letting Eric call the show. Eric's mouth moved to Bella's neck, kissing her there, making her shiver, while the man dropped to his knees, pulling Bella's pants down with him. It was an experience she knew that she wouldn't do unless alcohol was involved. She closed her eyes and let it happen, feelings of ecstasy filling her.
Despite the man on his knees bringing pleasure to her with his mouth, Eric's hands were the only thing she could feel in this instant. He touched her subtly, along her arm, up her sides, while his mouth breathed, hot against the back of her neck. She moaned again, shivering a little then right before she was about to cum, the man stopped and she realized that Eric had stopped him. She whimpered a little and Eric turned her, his mouth capturing hers, the kiss deep, making Bella forget where she was, but then he pulled away and he disappeared. She stood there blinking, not sure what happened or if she had imagined it. She was basically naked and she turned and Tori found her way back to her, Tori moved to Bella, kissing her again, her body completely naked now. Tori laughed as she nibbled on Bella's lips before she went to the ground, her mouth seeking Bella's extremely wet core. Bella closed her eyes, trying to get back into the moment. But Eric had left her and now she was feeling cold.
Tori was on her hands and knees which was an invitation to someone. It was one of the guys Bella saw frequent the bazaar and he slid into Tori from behind as Tori continued to swirl her tongue against Bella. Someone else came up behind Bella, and started touching her, and Bella frowned, knowing that the touch wasn't Eric's, but it was a familiar touch. She couldn't turn to see,and then the lights went out, typical for orgies apparently, so no one had to see who they were with, and Bella felt the sharp twinge in her chest as anxiety filled her. Darkness. It was a fear of hers. She felt closed in. The man behind her pressed into her, and she felt his cock against her back and Tori was still trying to pleasure her, but she couldn't do it anymore, so she pulled away, stumbling in the darkness, only seeing some glowing from neon signs there in the bazaar. She was able to pull her pants up somehow, but she was still topless. She tried to remember where her exits were, but the darkness confined her. She felt hands on her again and she pushed against the hands.
"It's me." Eric's voice stilled her and she became more relaxed. He led her away from the bazaar, taking a secret stairway that she didn't know about and before she knew it, she wasn't in darkness anymore. She was in the safety of Eric's room. She was breathing hard and she hadn't realized that she was sweaty.
Eric's hands framed her face to look at her. "Are you okay?" He asked, his tone serious.
Bella nodded. "Yeah. Um."
"You're afraid of darkness." Eric said simply and Bella just nodded. "I didn't know."
"No one knows… except you now." Bella said and ran a shaky hand through her hair. "Thank you."
"For what?"
"Getting me out. I started… feeling trapped. Before the lights went off, the guy behind me. I couldn't get to turn to see him. He felt familiar."
Eric raised a brow. "I'm not sure I want to know about your sexual explorations right this moment but-"
"It's not that. It's from the night. In the shower." Bella said.
Eric frowned, trying to think about if he actually saw the guy's face. Eric was still slightly inebriated, so he didn't focus too much, only Bella and Tori. "I don't know. I don't remember if I saw his face." That angered him. He walked around his room, thinking about it. "Fuck." He cursed. "That was the guy, you're sure?"
Bella nodded. "Oh, I'm sure. He's missing a testicle."
"He's missing a testicle, you're sure?"
"Yes I'm sure. Does that mean anything?"
Eric blew out a breath. "No, it doesn't. There are a number of guys walking around with one testicle Bella. This is Dauntless." He ran a hand through his hair. "I'll figure it out."
Bella shook her head. "No, I'll figure it out. I can go back down to the bazaar and-"
"And what? Walk right up to the guy you have no clue what he looks like?" Eric asked.
"Well it's better than standing here with you right now."
"Oh?"
"Well, you're just being pissy now. We can't change what happened to me. I'm over it. Why can't you move past it? I can fight my own fights."
Eric looked at her. "You really piss me off. You know that?"
"Good." Bella said, her dark eyes locked on his. They stared at each other a moment before Bella moved to him, kissing him, running her hands over his chest. Eric's hands moved up over her naked breasts and he tweaked her nipples with his thumbs getting an excited gasp from her, before he stopped to pull at her pants. She mimicked his movements, getting his pants undone before they were on his bed again and he was plowing into her from behind this time. It shook her from his force, thunderous thrusts. She moaned as he sank deep inside her each time, jarring her. When he felt like she was close, he slid out of her, turning her to her back so he could look down at her, but she shifted, getting to a sitting position before taking his cock in her mouth. He groaned as he sank deep into her throat, she let him before he pulled out and made her lay back again. He covered her, his mouth taking hers again, before his cock slid back inside her. He leaned up, hooking her legs up onto his shoulders as he pounded fast and hard. Her moans of pleasure rocked into his very soul and when she tightened, her orgasm gripping him hard, he sank deep, moaning as he bathed her insides once again.
Bella felt tingling from her head to her toes, pleasure had surrounded her quick. She lay there, regaining her breath before he slid out and lay beside her in the bed, calming his own breathing down. The only thing you could hear was the sound of their breathing as they both lay there in their own thoughts. Bella wasn't sure she could even move. Between the up and down emotion, the alcohol she was sure was still in her system and just the sheer force of Eric, he had her paralyzed in a good way.
Eric was the one that broke the silence this time. "You, okay?"
"You're worried about me?"
"Of course, I am. We just fucked each other hard and I'm worried about your stitches opening up and getting blood everywhere."
Bella snorted, laughing a little. "My stitches are fine. I took a beating today too don't forget." She said and then propped herself up on her elbows. "Now can I borrow a shirt and go back to the sleeping quarters so I can get some sleep before I get up train in the morning.
"You never stop."
"Nope." Bella said and forced herself to her feet. She got her panties and pants on before Eric got up and she got to witness him in all his naked glory as he grabbed one of his shirts to give to her. He walked it over to her and he went to hand it to her, but he snatched it away and also snagged another kiss, before he let her have the shirt.
Bella pulled it on. "This was fun. Though we have to stop meeting like this." She teased and then left Eric, very naked, in his room.
